Reflection and Transmission of Plane Waves at Micropolar Piezothermoelastic Solids

The present investigation analysis a problem of r­­­eflection and transmission at an interface of two micropolar orthotropic piezothermoelastic media. The basic equations and constitutive relations for micropolar orthotropic piezothermoelastic media for G-L theory are derived. The expressions for amplitude ratios corresponding to reflected and transmitted waves are derived analytically. The eff...

Wave Propagation in Micropolar Thermoelastic Diffusion Medium

The present investigation is concerned with the reflection of plane waves from a free surface of a micropolar thermoelastic diffusion half space in the context of coupled theory of thermoelastic diffusion. The amplitude ratios of various reflected waves are obtained in a closed form. The dependence of these amplitude ratios with an angle of propagation as well as other material parameter are sh...

Fundamental Solution and Study of Plane Waves in Bio-Thermoelastic Medium with DPL

The fundamental solution of the system of differential equations in bio-thermoelasticity with dual phase lag (DPL) in case of steady oscillations in terms of elementary function is constructed and basic property is established. The tissue is considered as an isotropic medium and the propagation of plane harmonic waves is studied. The Christoffel equations are obtained and modified with the ther...

Reflection and transmission of waves from imperfect boundary between two heat conducting micropolar thermoelastic solids

The problem of reflection and transmission of plane waves at an imperfect boundary between two thermally conducting micropolar elastic solid half spaces with two temperature is investigated. Amplitude ratio of various reflected and transmitted waves are presented when a set of coupled longitudinal wave (LD-wave) and thermal wave (T-wave) and a set of coupled transverse wave and microrotation wa...
